The study of microstrip patch antennas has made great progress in recent years. Compared with conventional antennas, microstrip patch antennas have more advantages and better prospects. They are lighter in weight, low volume, low cost, low profile, smaller in dimension and ease of fabrication and conformity. Moreover, the microstrip patch antennas can provide dual and circular polarizations, du...

Rapid passive device modeling is discussed in this work based on test structures fabricated in a 65 nm CMOS process with M1–M9 copper metal layers and one aluminum metal layer AP. Capacitance extraction for overlapping microstrips and shielded microstrip structures is investigated. Individual capacitances are modeled in terms of area and fringe components, either between microstrips or between ...

Regularly shaped compact microstrip antennas have a small size but their gain is insufficient for most applications. Therefore, a ring-shaped compact microstrip reflectarray with microstrip antenna feed has been proposed. Different configurations, namely, 1 × 3, 3 × 1, plus-shaped and 3 × 3 have been analyzed. The 3 × 3 configuration yields an optimum gain of 10. 8 dBi and a narrow beamwidth of...

We examine recent results on measurements of the magnetic penetration depth in cuprate superconductors, with particular emphasis on our results obtained with the microstrip and parallel-plate resonator techniques. The results show that the magnetic penetration depth temperature dependence in YBa2Cu307-a is not consistent with a simple scaled weak-coupled BCS temperature dependence. We present t...

381 Abstract— A monopole triangular shaped, broadband, compact microstrip patch antenna with shorting pin is presented in this paper. By defecting the ground plane bandwidth of 38.7% with respect to center frequency of a Microstrip patch antenna has been achieved which can be used for WLAN application. 82.4% size reduction has also been achieved by using shorting pin of a microstrip patch anten...

A multi-band microstrip patch antenna is developed and presented in this paper. The radiating elements in this antenna are composed of rectangular and triangular slots. These slots are engraved in the rectangular and triangular patch, joined together in one structure, and by single probe feed. The rectangular and triangular slots make the antenna to operate at multiband with relatively high gai...

This paper aim to present the design technique, parameter analysis, real prototype fabrication and measurement results compare to simulation of 5.8GHz rectangular microstrip inset feed patch antenna. The antenna design calculation, simulation study and practical measurement results are well presented and compared. This study would be useful to realize low cost 5.8GHz rectangular microstrip patc...

An effective technique utilizing neutralization lines to increase the isolation of a compact two-element dual-frequency microstrip antenna array is proposed in this paper. Two neutralization lines connect the two elements at the edge of each radiating patch. The positions and lengths of the two neutralization lines are studied to get the best performance of element isolation. A prototype of the...
